SYMBOLIC & HEALING PROPERTIES
Garnet comes from the Latin word ‘granatus’ meaning grain or seed, a reference to the seeds of the pomegranate. Garnets symbolise life force (seeds) and blood (colour) and are thus associated with love, prosperity, creativity and eternity.
Wearing your garnet pendant, birthstone for those born in January, will help awaken your creative energies and strengthen your will and if given to someone you love, is said to always bring them back to you.

DESCRIPTION
This charming pendant, with its adorable and delicate design, resembles a pomegranate, complete with leaves at the top and a tuft below. The center is adorned with numerous small garnets, symbolizing the seeds of the pomegranate.
Adding this pendant to your jewelry collection will not only make a wonderful and unique addition but also hold special significance for those born in January, as garnets are their birthstone.
DIMENSIONS
The pendant is 20mm by 15mm with about 50 garnets each of 1mm adorning the centre. Both pendant and chain are made of brass with one micron of 18k gold vermeil, so the gold should last well.
The reason some of our pieces are made of brass, not silver, is that should the vermeil begin to wear off, it will not show nearly so much on brass thus giving your piece a long life of wear. Please take care not to wear perfume near the gold pendant and chain as it erodes the gold vermeil.
The chain, which is interspersed with tiny gold balls, is 18 inches long, including a 2 inch extension.
